Hadith #475
Ungraded
Arabic Text
ثُمَّ قَالَ يُسَلِّمُ الرَّاكِبُ عَلَى الرَّاجِلِ وَالرَّاجِلُ عَلَى الْجَالِسِ وَالْأَقَلُّ عَلَى الْأَكْثَرِ فَمَنْ أَجَابَ السَّلَامَ كَانَ لَهُ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُجِبْ فَلَا شَيْءَ لَهُ
English Translation
Then he ﷺ said: 'The rider greets the pedestrian, the pedestrian greets the one who is sitting, and the smaller group greets the larger group. Whoever responds to the greeting, it is for him [i.e., he earns the reward]. And whoever does not respond, then there is nothing for him.'
